locomotor ataxia

Practically all patients with locomotor ataxia owe their condition to an antecedent syphilis.

Anaesthesia, amaurosis, deafness have been observed; a number of cases of locomotor ataxia are on record, and but lately Hadthagen12 publishes a case which he claims as disseminated sclerosis.

He suffers from aphasia, and locomotor ataxia has begun to manifest itself.

Tabes dorsalis, or locomotor ataxia, is caused in about 93 per centum of cases of this disease by syphilis, and it is an incurable and dreadful malady.

This with the exaggerated reflexes would exclude its use in locomotor ataxia.
